Hi everyone,
We're planning a last minute getaway from Canada to somewhere down south..likely Mexico (Mayan Riviera) or Dominican Republic.
I am having a lot of anxiety trying to figure out how to travel from the airport to resort. Since we're doing all inclusive, the transfer is included but it honestly terrifies me! My husband and I have been a few times without kids and I vividly remember some crazy fast reckless driving. I'd feel a tiny bit better if it was a larger greyhound type bus but I think the smaller vans are more common (at least that's all we saw the last couple times in Mayan Riviera). Can I install seats in these?
So what do people do? Hire a private transfer? How do you even do that? And what type of vehicle is it usually? Something different than a cab?
Is there a location that would be better to go to... Dominican vs Mexico (Mayan Riviera)? I honestly may base my decision on where to go on car seat safety.
It's almost to the point that I don't want to go at all...the only thing holding me back is the car seat situation. But I realize I have to live my life.
As for specifics, I have 3 year old twins who are about 36-38 inches and 30-32 lbs. They have Foonfs at home but we would likely bring Evenflo SureRides for the plane.
My husband would rather not bring the seats at all (bad experience before) so if there's another option then that would be great. We've looked at CARES for the plane but I guess we can't use it for a bus. Any other options?
Thanks so much for any help at all!! If we can figure this out then we can go on vacation!
